Offshore Fatigue

DNV, the world-leading provider of software for managing risk and improving asset performance in the energy, process and maritime industries, has released GeniE 8.11-01 is a tool for concept (high level geometry) modelling of beams, flat plates and stiffened shells.

This textbook provides in-depth treatment of all systems associated with wind energy, including the aerodynamic and structural aspects of blade design, the flow of energy and loads through the wind turbine, the electrical components and power electronics including control systems. It explains the importance of wind resource assessment techniques, site evaluation and ecology and describes the integration of wind farms into the electrical grid. The reader will also become familiar with the offshore technology, the youngest and most promising aspect of wind energy.
